| Sherwood Forest coleoptera - species gains and losses |
| ..... |
| In what could quite possibly be a case of 'out
with the old and in with the new', there's been some striking
changes to Sherwood Forest's beetle fauna over the past 100 years.
This page lists both those beetles unrecorded within the area known as the Sherwood Forest National Nature Reserve since 1921 and those recorded new to the area since 2000. It's quite some turnover really and it would be interesting to know if such a list of recently added species is actually quite typical of other UK sites. Sherwood is fortunate in that it's invertebrate fauna over most orders, is generally well recorded, documented and accessible. This makes things easier for those of us interested in the variances brought about over the course of a century, through changes to climate and an endless range of other possible influencing factors affecting many species either positively or negatively. The effects for inducing the sudden or gradual decline, or expansion of a particular species, are probably several in the vast majority of cases and the cause of decline or loss, can be beyond our understanding of that species. Just having the correct habitat is often not enough to rescue a species from catastrophic decline and a number of beetles have gone that way over the years. |

Sherwood Forest NNR species list total
and changes to the species list As of December 31st 2020, the Sherwood Forest National Nature Reserve coleoptera list stood at an approximate total of 1,201 species. 20 years ago (at the start of this century) the species list totalled 922, which was 84 species up on the 824 total reached at the end of 1921, some five years after J.W. Carr published his 1916 book 'The invertebrate Fauna of Nottinghamshire'. How lucky Nottinghamshire is to have such a book for the researchers among us. The Sherwood Forest list should be considered healthy for an area of it's size, especially as it lacks areas of deciduous woodland with a more diverse range of trees and shrubs and a large wetland area with good marginal habitat. Species-wise, it has seen considerable changes since the earliest documented records came in the late 1800's and of those species recorded up to 1921, approximately 297 have not been recorded since. Although beetles have been regularly 'rediscovered' at Sherwood after having gone unrecorded for a century, it is highly likely that many have indeed been lost from the area over time. On the flip side, a total of 293 previously unrecorded species, have been gained since 2000 alone. This rather high total, is the result of Sherwood's most intense period of coverage and recording effort geared towards coleoptera. |

| ..... | ||
 |
The total includes 14 aquatic species recorded new to
the Sherwood Forest NNR post-2000, from the families Haliplidae,
Noteridae, Hygrobidae and Disticidae and many more had been added
during the latter part of the 1990's. For some reason, no records of these
or any other aquatic coleoptera were recorded (or presented) from anywhere in the
Sherwood Forest area in Carr's 1916 book. Why this is remains unknown
and something of a mystery really, as there were obviously some water bodies present
over the area of the NNR a century or
more ago. Surveys, recorders and species additions The credit of Sherwood Forest even having a list of aquatic coleoptera, is really down to the enormous recording efforts of Bob Merritt. Bob singly handedly mapped Nottinghamshire's aquatic coleoptera during the late 1990's and early part of the 2000's and very kindly gave Dilys and myself a spreadsheet containing his records. Bob wanted his records 'used' and of course we gratefully obliged. An example of the results of Bob Merritt's recording is shown in the map for Ilybius fuliginosus (Fabricius, 1792) on the left. All bar about a dozen of the grid squares are attributable to Bob's recording. Quite a remarkable achievement. Bob Merritt left Nottinghamshire after eventually adding some 63 (mostly aquatic) species new to the NNR. Dilys and myself contributed 102 new species to the NNR list during many visits between 2008 and 2015, but many other new species (with totals in brackets) have been added following surveys conducted on behalf of Natural England East Midlands by M.L. Denton, E.J. Green, D.G. Hemingway, R.J. Marsh and D. Sharp, D. in 2002 (55sp) and more recently by a Natural England Survey Team of J. Hackman, J. Webb, A. Drewitt, J. Small and N. Button et al in 2018 (12sp). Earlier site surveys included Derek Lott's 1998 survey (23sp), followed quickly by Tony Drane's 2000 survey (40sp), Keith Alexander's 2009/2010 survey (5sp) and Paul and Helen Brock and John and Denise Bingham's site visit/survey in 2018 (2sp) General invertebrate surveys of Sherwood Heath by A. Godfrey and B. Marsh, commisioned by the Sherwood Forest Trust in the early 2000's, were a source of 36 new species for the Sherwood Forest NNR. Importantly, these surveys added many non-saproxylic species and most of the species found new this century, have largely been of this nature. This has placed a greater emphasis on Sherwood Forest holding a wider range of coleoptera, rather than just being considered important for it's saproxylic species. Sherwood is much more than that. |
|
| ..... | ||
| It's also important to remember
the enormous contributions made by those often forgotten recorders,
who covered Sherwood Forest throughout the latter decades of the
20th century. Colin Johnson found 24 species new to the area over a
number of years between 1960 and 1989, while Peter Skidmore recorded
another nine new species and F.A. Hunter six. Allan and Annette
Binding added a further ten species during visits and surveys crossing both the previous and
current centuries, while Adrian Dutton (a regular recorder of the
NNR's coleoptera for a number of years) has added at least eight new
species and a number of 'refounds' during his visits. Species for which there have been no Sherwood Forest NNR records since 1921 The following list of beetles have not been recorded from anywhere within the Sherwood Forest NNR over the last 100 years. While many of those listed are small species, often from difficult to identify families or families out of favour with coleopterists today, it is always possible that they could be recorded at some time in the future with persistant recording effort. It has to be said however, that a great many of the species on this list are probably best considered lost and not being present at Sherwood Forest today. There are some species on the list though, which have declined nationally in recent decades and it may be that over time, some of these will return when conditions are more suited. |

The cause of a
species being lost from a site can be down to any number of causes
and influencing factors; either through natural means such as
microclimatic or global climate changes, or the loss of habitat
through human activity such as commercial forestry, an over-zealous
scrub/tree removal program, or just inconsiderate and poor site
management. Contrary to popular general opinion, there is plenty of standing dying, or dead wood habitat at Sherwood Forest Country Park. But if trees keep being removed as part of a thinning program aimed at increasing veteran tree longevity and to ensure 'healthy' woodland, there is every chance that this will potentially lead to a lack of standing dying/dead wood habitat. This is being compensated for by the abhorrent practice of 'veteranising' trees to speed up the aging process. It's just arboreal euthanasia and it's needless. To ensure a continuous supply of dying/deadwood habitat at Sherwood Forest, it would perhaps be better practice to remedy Sherwood's age-old problem of being a forest of trees with a limited age range. As a mature forest with a quite unique population of veteran trees, unless young Oak and the forgotten Silver Birch are allowed to grow now, there will be even less tree succession in 100/200 years from now and aren't we supposed to be protecting the forest for future generations? |

Ptiliidae has been one of the worst affected families in terms of
species presumed as lost from the NNR. Some ten species have not been seen
in 100 years, including four species of Acrotrichis. These seem to have been replaced by four new species of Acrotrichis
since the turn of this century however and there must be a number of
others awaiting discovery for anyone fancying something
of a challenge. Leiodidae is another family to have suffered a number of losses in Sherwood Forest, with 19 species not recorded since before 1921 and only five new species found since 2000. Despite members of this family being distinctive to assign to family level easily enough, identification to species level is not always easy and as they are often being found on or near carrion or fungi, perhaps aren't many coleopterist's first choice of study? A total of 95 species from the extensive Staphylinidae family, have not been recorded since 1921, but Staphylinidae is another of those families often shunned by modern recorders, largely through the difficulties in species identification and the huge number of species the family contains. Other families and their corresponding number of lost species not seen since 1921, include Elateridae (5sp), Cantharidae (4sp), Nitidulidae (10sp), Monotomidae (6sp), Latridiidae (7sp), Cerambycidae (4sp), Chrysomelidae (23sp), Apionidae (14sp) and Curculionidae (30sp). |

| Species recorded as new to the Sherwood
Forest NNR since 2000 Of the following 293 species for which there appear to be no documented records from Sherwood Forest prior to 2000, many will come as a surprise to the experienced coleopterist who happens to read this. The list includes a number of beetles which in all honesty, would be regarded as standard 'list fillers' for any invertebrate survey today, and there seems to be no real reason why they haven't been recorded within the Sherwood Forest NNR until recently. Quite astonishing is the number of new Carabidae recorded new to the NNR, even though Carabidae is among the most popular families with coleopterists today. |
||
| ... | ||
| A total of 39 new Carabids includes ten from the genus Amara
alone and none of which are sufficiently rare enough to get really excited about.
Why these weren't picked up before is strange, as none of them come
immediately to mind as having undergone recent range expansions in the past 20 or so
years. Possibly it's because much of the recent coleoptera surveying, has been largely geared towards Sherwood's saproxylic species and that few individual recorders have devoted much time to recording here. Sherwood Forest is known ofr it's saproxylic invertebrates (not just some famous outlaw) and one of the reasons why it was originally awarded it's NNR status. The 293 species does contain many new saproxylic beetles, including Agrilus sinuatus (Buprestidae) pictured right, Lymexylon navale (Lymexylidae), Orchasia minor and Melandrya caraboides (Melandryidae), Uleiota planata and Silvanus bidentatus (Silvanidae), Rhizophagus fenestralis (Monotomidae) and Cryptolestes duplicatus (Laemophloeidae). The latter beetle found in early 2020, is every bit the typical saproxylic beetle - dull, brown and small. However, excitingly it was the NNR's first recorded species from the family Laemophloeidae, as was Ochthebius minimus (Hydraenidae) which was another record attributable to Bob Merritt. |
 |
|
| ... | ||
| Four species of Acrotrichis
(Ptiliidae) were added during the 2002 survey of Sherwood Forest Country
Park and the Buck Gates area by M.L. Denton et al, but only one has been
recorded again since. Acrotrichis and Ptiliidae
are minute beetles generally (between 0.5 - 2mm in length) and although
common in most leaf litter samples, are just too small for most
people to bother with. Another family not entirely popular with many coleopterists is Staphylinidae. This is a huge family with well over 1,000 UK species and probably more still waiting to be discovered. There are many very small, similar species and the lack of a decent, readily available and up to date identification key to the whole family doesn't help. The recording of Staphylinids over the past century at Sherwood Forest is especially interesting to those who like their statistics, which is perhaps merely just the same as saying 'are interested'. The family's popularity at Sherwood, has certainly lessened over the past 100 years with 95 species either lost or unrecorded since 1921, compared to just 67 species gained. |
||
| ... | ||
 |
However, although the family's overall
popularity has declined, a number of genera within the family are still
popular with recorders and within the five genera which follow, Dilys
and I certainly favoured Stenus, Philonthus and
Quedius. Within these lost and gained Staphylinids are some
interesting changes to at least five different genera, namely
Tachyporus (1L/5G), Atheta (6L/3G), Stenus (1L/9G), Philonthus (6L/3G) and Quedius (9L/5G).
Obviously 'L' means Lost and 'G' means Gained. Observer preference or favouritism, certainly plays a part here and particularly with the genus Stenus. Seven out of the nine species gained since 2000, were once again attributable to the recording of Bob Merritt, but most of the other new species are from various commitioned surveys. Compartmental grazing within the Sherwood Forest Country Park and on Budby South Forest by a combination of English Longhorn Cattle and Hebridean Sheep, has led to the largest increase in new species showed by Scarabaeidae. Prior to 2000, just six species were known compared to today's 24 and of the 24, personal favouritism towards the genus Aphodius has certainly been a factor in increasing the Sherwood species list. |
|
| ... | ||
| Family favouritism also applies to
Coccinellidae and it was surprising when originally compiling a species
list for the NNR in 2008, that so many common and well recorded
Ladybirds, hadn't actually been officially documented as having occurred
at Sherwood, in the available media we had at the time. So to have
species such as Tytthaspis sedecimpunctata
16-spot Ladybird, Psyllobora vigintiduopunctata
22-spot Ladybird and Adalia decempunctata
10-spot Ladybird as new to Sherwood post-2000, is rather
ridiculous. The same might be thought about Halyzia sedecimguttata Orange
Ladybird, but that's not so frequent over much of the NNR since
most of the Sycamore's were removed. But among the list of those species rather carelessly unrecorded, are some which never occurred anywhere near Nottinghamshire a number of years ago, but have moved north through the UK and appeared shortly after the turn of the present century. Harmonia axyridis Harlequin Ladybird is a classic example, as are the now ubiqutous Oedemera nobilis Swollen-thighed Beetle (one of two new Oedemeridae species) and Agelastica alni Alder Leaf Beetle (Chrysomelidae). But quite where Budby (and Newstead Abbey's) Meloe proscarabaeus Black Oil Beetle suddenly came from in 2011, still baffles to this day. Who knows just what will turn up next? |
